Configuring open bot variables

  • Go to the config file in src/config/index.js.

Here you will find the following variables:

Trading mode

Choose between

  • Backtesting

  • Paper testing

  • Running the bot live

Time measures

  • Time frame (if backtest is chosen)

  • Backtest days (if backtest is chosen)

  • Retry order (to configure the order execution)

Market

  • Specify your market foreaxmple 'BTC-ETH' for Bitcoin / Ethereum market.

Strategy

  • Choose a premade strategy such as 'BBANDS-RSI' or set in your own custom strategy.

  • Each folder in src/core/strategy/strategies folder is a strategy you can choose from

Creating your own strategy

  • To create your own strategy take a look at the template implementation in src/strategy/strategies/TEMPLATE

  • When you add a new folder with the strategy as index.js then webpack will make that folder available as a module.

  • So if we add a folder called MY_NEW_STRATEGY in src/strategy/strategies you can then set the STRATEGY value in the config file to 'MY_NEW_STRATEGY'.
